Supreme Court sides with Colorado baker who refused to make wedding cake for same-sex couplePost Date: 2018-06-04 10:42:06 by Justified21 CommentsThe Supreme Court ruled Monday in favor of a Colorado baker who refused to bake a wedding cake for a same-sex couple.

At issue was a July 2012 encounter between the couple and baker Jack Phillips. The battle has since developed into perhaps the most closely watched appeal so far this term before the high court. At the time, Charlie Craig and David Mullins of Denver visited Masterpiece Cakeshop to buy a custom-made wedding cake. Phillips refused his services when told it was for a ...

House Vote on FOSTA is a Win for Censorship (LF shutdown by GOP Leadership?)Post Date: 2018-02-28 13:25:53 by hondo683 Comments The bill passed today 388-25 by the U.S. House of Representatives marks an unprecedented push towards Internet censorship, and does nothing to fight sex traffickers.

Republicans repeal the Tea PartyPost Date: 2018-02-10 12:44:54 by hondo682 CommentsThe Tea Party had one tangible achievement to show for all of the havoc it caused: The enactment of spending caps that resulted from the 2011 standoff over raising the debt ceiling.
